Hi,

short:
cvsup from 21th & 22th.
After make world/kernel my printer didn't print anymore.
(nlpt0, ppbus)

long:
It's a Deskjet500 compatible printer.

After turning power on (printer) it resets itself (thats normal, all LEDs
on for a short time, after that the LEDs display the status).
But instead of going online all LEDs went on again. It seems my printer
gets a permanent reset signal (If the PC isn't turned on, the same thing
happens, so i assume there is something "LOW" which must be "HIGH").
If I send something directly (echo blubb >/dev/lpt0) the LEDs display for a
short time the status, but after that the went all on again.
If I print something (lpr xxx) nothing going on (it gets schedulled
correctly in the queue, which isn't stopped or disabled).

Bye,
Alexander.
